SUCCESSFUL TRADE SHOW SIDE EVENTS: OUR CASE STUDIES
THE STARDUST BAR: CREATING IMMERSIVE BRAND EXPERIENCES
When blockchain gaming company Stardust approached us to develop an innovative concept for Gamescom, we brought their vision to life through the Stardust Bar, a Space-Age Gamer Speakeasy.
Inspired by classic speakeasies and our client’s futuristic vision, we created one of the most exclusive experiences of the trade fair. Guests were immersed in an environment that reflected the client’s universe, complete with performers and interactive elements.
The event featured a special collectible card game that could be traded among participants and exchanged for unique cocktails, with each card representing different aspects of the client’s technology.
OMCLUB: MASTERING LARGE-SCALE EXCLUSIVE EVENTS
Since 2008, we’ve revolutionized how the digital marketing industry celebrates and networks during DMEXCO with our OMClub. What began as an alternative to the official trade fair party has evolved into the largest and most popular industry event, attracting over 3,000 professionals annually.
The OMClub 2024 with its “Your Ticket to Hollywood” theme transformed the Bootshaus Cologne into a glamorous world of entertainment and networking. For us as event organizers, the OMClub represents a highly complex project that combines countless event elements – from strategic marketing and guest curation to meticulous planning and execution.
Coordinating over 200 sponsors, creatively integrating partner activities, and creating an inviting setting requires our complete expertise. The multifaceted design of the event allows us to explore creative boundaries and continuously evolve.
